TL;DR: The NASA Extreme Environment Mission Operations (NEEMO) 15 mission was focused on evaluating techniques for exploring near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) as discussed by the authors, where a University of Delaware autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) systematically mapped the coral reef for hundreds of meters surrounding the Aquarius habitat.

TL;DR: Given the high physiological and functional demands of operating in a self-contained EVA or training suit in various gravity fields and system environments, there is a possibility that crew injury can occur as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: Preursor data can be used effectively to plan and execute exploration traverse EVAs and operations concepts that allow for presampling surveys enable efficient traverse execution and meaningful Mission Control Center (MCC) interaction across communication latencies and can be done with minimal crew idle time.
